Project Runway Season 9 Episode 2

My Pet Project:

Twigs
I had to do something super simple this week because one of my oldest friends was visiting from out of town and my studio time was scarce. During my quick trip to the pet store I discovered some cool natural twig sticks that little rodent critters like to nibble on. I used my saw to get them to the right length, added some sterling silver bezel caps and eye pins to them and viola', simple and cool stick earrings!

Here was our challenge (written by Nina Dinoff)

The Project Runway Challenge:
In this episode, the challenge was to create an outfit using pet store supplies. They were allowed to use muslin as well, but were encouraged not to.

For our EtsyMetal Translation: Yup, you guessed it. The EM challenge is to make a piece of jewelry using pet store supplies! Try to limit your time in the pet store to 30 minutes. You may use some metal in the piece but try to use as little as possible. Make it work!
